PROGRAM Douglas County's recreational program won high com mendation from Governor Douglas McKay at a meeting of the State Natural Resources Committee in Salem last week. In fact, the discussion of the county's program consumed a major part of the meeting, according to reports. John Amacher, chairman of the Douglas County Parks Board, and Charles S. Collins, supervisor, attended the meet ing and were called upon for a report. Governor McKay reportedly expressed amazement at the extent of accomplish- merits In view of the small sum expended and urged the ex ' tension of the program into other counties. He labeled it ; "one of the most outstanding accomplishments in the state." . Heads of various state departments also exhibited much ' Interest. They were particularly pleased with the policies ; of the Parks Department in endeavoring to preserve recrea- i tional facilities, access to ; grounds ahead of population An outgrowth of the meeting, in which the county's ac tivlty held the spotlight, possibly will be a greater measure of cooneration in furnishing long-range planning. The Parks Department is hopeful of , obtaining technical assistance, particularly in developing ' camnsites and rjicnic grounds along the North Umpqua. A master recreational plan is and federal agencies. When the plan is finally adopted it will need a considerable amount of engineering, much of which would be available from the state. Winchester Bay Featured Interest was shown at the committee meeting in the unique situation at Winchester Bay, the mouth of the Ump qua River. r . The state's best sports fishery has developed there with in the past four years, since'the river was closed to com mercial netting of game fish.' Attracting more than 20,000 anglers last year, the fishery is estimated to produce more than $2,000,000. income annually, although little money has been expended in developing potentials, i A long-range plan now is being formulated. , A firm of .consulting engineers has been employed to work out an im- 'provement project which can be handled in units. i The first and most essential unit is a breakwater, rough ly paralleling the river channel, to halt the movement of sand into the bay. .' Since the new jetty was built for the . purpose of deepening the bar, surges are cutting away the Winchester Bay shoreline while, at the same time, driving .sand Into the bay, and building up tidelands. A breakwater is projected to halt the washing action and to preserve the boat basin. , This breakwater, about 8,000 feet In length, would be 40 feet wide on top, and would provide parking space for several hundred cars. It Is be lieved that action of the water, following construction of the breakwater, would result In a fill between the outer side of the barrier and the main river channel, eventually leading to deposits creating a 30 to 50-acre sand beach. Money Problem Studied Simultaneously with the construction of the breakwater, there would be built parking areas at the south end of the bay, offering combine! parking facilities for more than 2,000 vehicles. Recreational activities then would be moved to the south bay and along the inner side of the breakwater. " Sponsors are hopeful that the commercial requirements then will be taken over by the , ing sports basin would be deepened and would be used to harbor the outside fishing fleet, Including tuna boats. In dredging out the mooring area and turning basin, materials ; would be wasted along the existing shoreline, building up approximately 27 acres of recreational area. Tho entire program Is estimated to cost approximately ; $400,000. The first unit the areas and a bridge across Winchester Creek will cost in the neighborhood of $135,000. Sponsors are asking that Doug las County and the Port of Umpqua assume the cost of the , first unit. , A schedule of charges for parking, boat launch ing, charter trips, etc., would be worked out, whereby the sum invested would be paid back from income over a period of about 10 years.' The amount Invested by the County and Port District , would be credited as contributor participation in the event the Army Engineers approved their suggested part in the program, and no further expenditures in any large amount would be required from local sources. The county budget committee will be asked for the ; amount needed to match the Port District in construction of v the first unit, Douglas County has started a recreational program of which it may well be proud a program that has won high commendation. It has opportunity to develop at Winchester Bay one of the Pacific Coast's most sensational sports fish eries. While the initial cost may seem large, it eventually j will be recovered." Evn though no income resulted from ' fees, increase in property valuations at Winchester Bay : through improvement of recreational facilities, soon would, through taxes, reimburse the county for its investment. It ' is an opportunity that should not be permitted to escape. Local News Arrives In Rostburg Joe Rich- ards, owner of Joe Richards Men's Store, plans to visit Rnseburg fol lowing a trip to New York.

An ardent Re oublican might differ with that statement, but shucks; if party can didates were not permitted to make the welkin ring at $100-a-plate party dinners this would be a heck of a country. The reporters said the Veep in dicated no present intention of an nouncing whether he is a candi date, and added their own cynical interpretation that what he said and how he said it made it pretty plain that he regards himself as the "chief dark-horse candidate." It could be. He's 74, but he's still full of the old Nick. AP's Jack Bell, one of the report ers present, says "the upshot of the dinner and all the speeches was talk though mostly in whispers that, the President COULD be drafted to run again, even though he says he won't respond to such a move." , Personally, I don't think he wants it. But . The Democraticvparty la split wide open along the Mason and Dixon-line. The Southerners won't stand for an all-out Northerner and the Northerners won't stand for an all-out Southerner. The problem is to find somebody who can stand with one foot on each side of the line and guarantee that neither fac tion will get into control. Truman has got away with It during his administration. It isn't going to be too easy to find some body else who can do the trick. It appears at the convention that Truman could do it again and nobody else could, the pressure on him to accept a draft would be terrific. Pressure of that sort Isn't easily resisted. I doubt if it will happen, but I wouldn't bet against Sometime just takes a bit of thinking to make a kitchen more convenient to the woman who works in It. When some little de tail of work routine seems Irksome, maybe there is a re-arrangement that might help. One woman 1 know was delighted to have a tier of three metal drawers in her dream kltch en uniltshenfuod dream kitchen until she found that they .seemed unhandy some how. Finally she did a little think ing. just Because ine salesman, tne carpenter and her husband had said "Now this top one Is for bread. , ." it didn't mean that bread had to go in it. Sure enough, she put flour in one half of the drawer divided lengthwise, I and rolling pin, sifter and so on in the other half. Bread went into the "flour drawer" which, without the annoying division, accommodated cake and buns. Now she is happy and If her husband can ever re member where the bread is, he will be too. A housewife had been irked for years because her ironin? board was too low to stand at, and too high to sit at, and the underpart got in the way of her kneps. One day she had enough. She took out two nails that held a dowel from slipping, poked the dowel through , the holes, and presto, the ironing board, a nice wide one, was loose from all that underpart.

JENKINS it unless I had money to throw at the birds. Getting back to Harriman, I'm a bit fed up with these second and third generation rich who go into politics in a big way. The trouble with them is that they never had to make a business pay, or go broke and sleep in the street. 1 That makes their economic think ing unrealistic. Never having had to make it themselves, they fall naturally into the delusion that money grows on trees and all you have to do is to shake the tree and the stuff will come showering down. We've had too much of that al ready. Fullerton School Program PTA Topic For Tonight The physical education and ath letic program at Fullerton will be discussed by P. W.

IJafca WHAT ABOUT RAYON Aside from having lower tensile strength than other fabrics, rayon presents no special problems cleaning-wise. There are, however, several exceptions to this statement. In the first place, there's a lot of difference between Rayon and Regenerated Rayon, Regenerated Rayon is a fabric made of old rayon. In other words, it has undergone a second manufacturing process. Since rayon is originally made from cellulose treated chemically, this second dis solving process results in the production of a weaker fila ment. Result is a strictly unserviceable fabric. We would like to recommend to you NEVER BUY ANY GARMENT WHICH CONTAINS REGENERATED RAYON. However, this is practically impossible since many materials and fabrics contain threads of regenerated rayon. So it seems sensible to suggest two things. 1. Never smear nail polish, or spill alcohol or other solvents on rayon. They affect the fibers of the fabric, and sometimes cause it to fuse. 2. Always ask your merchant whether the rayon in question contains regenerated rayon. If he cannot assure you, why not buy a garment which will bemore service able, and therefore, wear longer with less trouble? Further than that, demand adequate guarantees from the mer chant from whom you buy either a rayon garment or rayon yardage that it will withstand all of the ordinary cleaning procedures. "For 3-4596 FREE PICK-UP it i Dial WASHINGTON -1 am astounded at the silence of the Baltimore bugle, Owen Lattimore, who hasn't opened his mouth since former Ambassador William C. Bullitt made a clown of him in' testimony before the McCarran Internal Security Subcommittee of the Senate. day alma Pick Up 2-col Lead Lattimore is getting more and more like the State Department's ambassador at larse. Philin r Jessup. Both of them used to pon tificate at every opportunity, and without even being asked, about what this country thca'd do in Asia. If anyone ever criticized their fuzzy yammering, a resound ing reply in double talk alwavs followed instantaneously. Now, however, both are retiring behind long lapses ot silence. And I think I know the reason why. Bullitt was our ambassador in Moscow, you remember, when the Baltimore Bule and assorted Communists from this country were licking Kremlin boots while figuring out a way to sell Asia down the river of Soviet domina tion. One of the favorite methods of camouflaging the cooperation of U. S. Reds with the Kremlin was via the Institute of Pacific Rela tions. Senator Pat McCarran's subcommittee, with Chief Counsel Robert Morris in charge of the dissection, has just completed show lag up the IPR for what it really was a goofy collection of alleged scholars controlled by Commu nists, near-Communists and as sorted other Kremlin stooges. Lat timore and Jessup were high mo guls in this international rat trap. When the Bugle blew into Mos cow in 1936, he had a chat with Bullitt. . The ex-ambassador is made of .somewhat different fi ber from a lot of other former and present State Department of ficials. He had Heard tne same sound the Baltimore Bugle was blowing, many times before and it was right out of a Kremlin window. , Lattimore wanted to overlook the execution of some three or four hundred loyal Chinese in out er Mongolia by the Russian secret police. He wanted the United States to recognize that territory's -'independence-- irom unina, to give it diplomatic recognition as a free state entitled to member ship in the League of Nations. Bullitt says he told Lattimore that the Russians ran Outer Mon golia, and that if Lattimore thought otherwise he was either ignorant or "deliberately attempting to as sist in the spreak of Communist authority throughout Asia." There is more to the story which somehow failed to get in the regu lar press accounts of Bullitt's testimony. Bullitt tangled with the Baltimore Bugle once more. It was on a radio program in 1948, when the Chinese Nationalist troops were begging for U.S. equip ment because the Chinese Reds, under Russian direction and with supplies from the Russians, had Chiang Kai-shek's troops set up for the kill. We had helped create the situation by refusing to give arms to the Nationalists. Lattimore drummed up some smart talk about how the Chinese Communist troops in Manchuria were equipping themselves with American arms abandoned b y cowardly Nationalist troops. This went over the air waves to sev eral million Americans who are sympathetic to the Chinese but deplore cowardice wherever they find it. Lattimore was spewing siraigui T ADVICE particular people" CLEANERS 417 E. 2nd Ave. S. AND DELIVERY fjaSS Communist propaganda when he made his remark. Bullitt pointed out that no Chinese Communist troops were in Manchuria at the time and later, when they did get there, they- were sent in by the Russians, who had equipped them with captured Japanese arms and ammunition. . I am less charitable' towards the Baltimore Bugle- than Bullitt was. He testified that he had told Lattimore on the radio: : .... "You are the head of a school have no right to evade an an swer to your extraordinary state ment." Bullitt then went oh' "I am led to conclude that Mr. Lat timore is. once more behaving eiter as a man who was inter ested in promoting the conquest of the Far East by the Commu nists, or, as I said before, that he was simply a charlatan who knew nothing about the subjects on which he took positions and that he had no business to be at the head of a school on international relations of a distinguished uni versity." Lattimore was, and is, head of the Walter Hines Page School of International Relations of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, and he still is required White House and State Department read ing on topics dealing with Asia. Bullitt's disgust was . monu mental after a few years of deal ing with people like the Balti more bugle. He quit., Lattimore and the boys stayed around, how ever, and look where China is today.
